C.P. Cavafy in Los Angeles

Here is a little video of me performing an in-progress version of a song called “C.P. Cavafy” last week at a house show in Los Angeles. The song works with Cavafy’s poem “Chandelier” (translated by Daniel Mendelsohn) and this performance was illuminated by the glow of two people browsing and using their favorite sex + love apps (I believe Scruff and Tinder in this case). Many thanks to Laura Vitale, whose drawings will be featured in this project’s booklet, for opening up her apartment for the show.
